Actress
Geetika Tyagi who was sexually assaulted by ‘Jolly LLB’ director Subash Kapoor one
and a half years ago has uploaded a video on youtube where the actress exposed
the director and the video shows how highly agitated Geetika slapped Subhash
Kapoor.

The video has been loaded on youtube with the title, ‘Subhash Kapoor’s true
face’. The video shows how Subhash’s wife Dimple Kharbanda, pleading Tyagi and
her boyfriend, director Atul Sabharwal, to keep the matter private for the sake
of their son. "Sab kuch khatam ho gaya hai.. ek hi cheez bachhi hai, uss
bachhe (their son) ka future”. Kharbanda was in tears and she was not
able to speak, she was totally heartbroken.

Geetika’s voice was also heard, she
was in tears saying, "I don’t know what to do," Kapoor says. Finally,
Tyagi towards Kapoor and slapped him.

Alongside the video, Tyagi has
written, "My intentions of uploading this video is to caution those girls
who will come in contact with this man, Subhash Kapoor, socially or
professionally and will make the mistake of looking up to him as father-figure
or as an elder brother and trust him and... for all girls who, if god forbid
become victims of sexual assault, not to give in to pleading of their
attacker’s wife, sister, mother, daughter or any woman who asks for your
forgiveness for attacker... (sic)"

No sooner the video was loaded on site and the
true face of Subhash Kapoor came into forefront, internet is buzz with
comments. "Unbelievable. Power and big kudos to you! This would not have
been easy". "It took a lot of courage but finally I did it.
Thank you Atul!" Tyagi posted on Twitter, even though she did not respond
to our repeated calls.

Sabharwal also tweeted, "May this end the mental suffering that you’ve
been going through ever since."

Filmmaker Anand L Rai says that it’s very disturbing to hear about such
instances. "Looks like the casting couch still exists. I don’t know what
the solution is, but it’s the duty of a filmmaker to keep his image clean and
focus on the creatives instead."
